AdGlare VS CloudLinux

• Ad Decisioning
  Let the ad serving engines decide which ad to serve, taking into account scheduling, targeting, priorities, budget capping, delivery pacing and much more.
• Event Tracking
  Log all events like impressions, clicks, viewability metrics, fill rates and more. Get full insights into the engagement viewers had with the ads.
• Geotargeting
  Targeting campaigns to a country, region or city is an indispensable feature of a Ad Server Software to optimize ad spend and reduce wasted budget.
• Optimization
  Let AdGlare automatically serve ads that tend to perform better. Upload variants of the same creative and let the algorithms do their magic.
• Delivery Pacing
  This algorithm prevents that all impressions are served within the early hours of the day. It spreads impressions throughout the day, allowing for a higher reach and more efficient use of budgets.
• Conversion Tracking
  Track which impressions and clicks have lead to a conversion. Create conversion reports and get the complete picture. Optimize campaign accordingly, either manually or automatically.
• Bot Filtering
  Prevent logging events and metrics from automated bot. AdGlare automatically filters all GIVT traffic to avoid your reports from becoming skewed. Bot filtering improves CTR.
• White Labeled Ad Serving
  Get around ad blockers easily. Set up your white-label and serve ads from your own subdomain. This feature is included in the Professional and Enterprise plan.

• Enhanced Server Stability
  CloudLinux uses its lightweight virtualization technology (LVE) to isolate each tenant on a shared hosting server, preventing any single user from consuming excessive resources and crashing the server for everyone else. This ensures consistent uptime and performance.
• Improved Security with HardenedPHP and KernelCare
  CloudLinux offers HardenedPHP, which patches old and unsupported PHP versions against known vulnerabilities, and KernelCare, which provides live kernel patching without requiring server reboots. These features significantly enhance server security posture.
• Resource Limit Management
  Administrators can set granular resource limits (CPU, memory, I/O, number of processes, etc.) per user account using LVE Manager. This makes it easy to manage shared hosting environments and ensure fair resource distribution among tenants.
• CageFS File System Virtualization
  CageFS creates a virtualized file system for each user, preventing them from seeing other users on the server, viewing sensitive configuration files, or exploiting server vulnerabilities. This adds an important layer of isolation and security.
• Wide Compatibility with Hosting Panels
  CloudLinux integrates seamlessly with popular hosting control panels such as cPanel, Plesk, and DirectAdmin, making it straightforward for hosting providers to adopt without overhauling their existing infrastructure or workflows.

Possible disadvantages

• Additional Licensing Cost
  CloudLinux requires a paid monthly or annual license on top of the base server cost. For smaller hosting providers or individual server owners, this additional expense can add up and may not always be justifiable compared to free alternatives.
• Limited to CentOS/RHEL-Based Systems
  CloudLinux is built on top of RHEL/CentOS and does not support other Linux distributions like Ubuntu or Debian. This limits its adoption for hosting providers who prefer or already run non-RHEL-based environments.
• Learning Curve for Configuration
  While CloudLinux provides powerful resource management tools, properly configuring LVE limits, CageFS, PHP Selector, and other features requires a solid understanding of the platform. Misconfiguration can lead to users being unnecessarily restricted or resources being poorly allocated.
• Potential Performance Overhead
  The additional layers of virtualization, resource monitoring, and file system isolation introduced by CloudLinux can impose a slight performance overhead on the server compared to running a bare, unmodified Linux distribution without these controls.
• Dependency on CloudLinux Ecosystem
  Adopting CloudLinux means relying on their ecosystem for kernel updates, PHP patches, and security fixes. If the company experiences delays in releasing patches or changes its pricing/licensing model, hosting providers may find themselves locked into a dependency that is difficult to migrate away from.
